| What it is | You study crime, criminal behaviour, and the justice system — what causes people to commit crimes, how police and courts respond, and how society prevents and punishes offences. Unlike a law degree, this focuses on understanding crime itself rather than practising as a lawyer. It suits people interested in criminology, criminal justice work, or social science research who want a broad foundation before specializing further. | Critical Criminology examines why crimes happen and how criminal justice systems work, focusing on how power, inequality, and social structures shape both crime and punishment. Unlike traditional criminology, which mainly studies criminal behaviour itself, this program questions whether laws and enforcement are fair and who benefits from the current system. It suits students interested in understanding crime as a social problem rather than just studying offenders. | This program lets you study criminal justice and education at the same time, earning two degrees in five years instead of six. You'll learn about law, crime, and the justice system while also training to teach grades 1 through 6. It suits people who want to work as a teacher but have a strong interest in how the criminal justice system works, or who see themselves teaching in alternative schools or programs focused on at-risk youth. | Psychology at Glendon is a BA program where you study human behaviour, mental processes, and how people think and interact. You can take electives across many related fields like forensic science, human biology, education, or law depending on your interests. The iBA option requires you to complete part of your degree in French immersion, making it suited to students who want bilingual depth alongside their psychology training. |
